Spiral Review In A Middle School Mathematics Classroom, Haley Birks
Master's Theses & Capstone Projects
The purpose of this action research project was to determine the relationship between daily spiral review bell ringers and students' assessment scores. The research was driven by the problem of students reaching the end-of-year assessments and being unable to remember material they had learned throughout the year. A quantitative study was used to determine the effectiveness of a ten-week spiral review intervention. The researcher is a seventh and eighth grade math teacher in her fifth year of teaching. Data was collected from a pre-test and post-test created by the researcher consisting of material from the Common Core State Standards and …

Pre-Calculus: Thinking Deeply About Simple Things, Jacob Carter
Graduate Research Showcase
“Pre-Calculus: Thinking Deeply About Simple Things” is a research-based creative endeavor focused on designing a high-school pre-calculus course. This course aims to foster deep, meaningful thinking, as well as an appreciation of the values of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the math classroom. The course leverages students’ funds of knowledge to employ culturally responsive teaching methods to connect mathematical concepts to the students’ backgrounds, interests, and real-life situations. This course also integrates social-emotional learning to create an engaging and supportive learning environment for all students. By combining Peter Liljedahl’s “Building Thinking Classroom in Mathematics” approach with problem-based learning, the course …
